ECOTRANSDELTA A Solution for the Sustainable Transport with Electric Propulsion Systems in the Danube Delta
The objectives of the communitary policy are focused on preserving, protecting and improving the quality of the environment and of the human life as well as on the rational and preventive usage of natural resources. This policy is based on the principle of preventing the environmental disasters, because, nowadays, on Earth the pollution has increased in such a manner as to endanger even the life on the planet.
Consider that:
- Sustainable development of the surface transport is one of the major short-term objectives of the EU countries, where the environmental policy is very important but also very hard to achieve because of the economic environment.
- Natural protected areas (such as the Biosphere Reservation of the Danube Delta) are in real danger because of the fauna and flora endangering due to pollution, a problem that also emerges in the pleasure areas (such as the Vidraru Dam) in Romania but in many other EU countries
- Implementation of the environment-friendly transport system (water/land) has become a must in the EU region, and the promotion of a transportation system based on the electrical driven vehicles seems to be the optimal solution.
That is why ICPE has started, in a consortium, a project that aims at offering a solution for the Biosphere Reservation of the Danube Delta, carrying out prototypes of DC and brushless propulsion systems for the light electric vehicles and for boats.
The motors that can equip these vehicles are DC permanent magnet motors and brushless servomotors, in the range of 3-10 kW, powered from batteries ( 24 V; 48 V; 120 V; 196 V respectively), conceived and designed for transport.
